Canonical version: 2026-05-20 New filtered RSS feeds on dsebastien.net.
For a long time my site effectively had a single RSS feed: the one at /rss/. It worked, but it forced an all-or-nothing choice: subscribe to everything I publish, or nothing.
That's now fixed. dsebastien.net has a proper set of RSS feeds. Follow exactly the slice of my writing you care about. No account, no algorithm, no email required.
Pick the feed you want
There's a new directory page that lists every feed: dsebastien.net/feeds. The highlights:
- Everything — /rss/ — every post I publish
- Articles — /blog/rss/ — long-form articles only
- Newsletter archive — /newsletter/rss/ — past newsletter editions
- News — /news/rss/ — short notes and quick updates
- Knowledge Management & Note-taking — /feeds/pkm/rss/ — PKM, note-taking, Obsidian, Zettelkasten and journaling, combined into one feed
- Artificial Intelligence — /feeds/ai/rss/ — using AI for knowledge work: LLMs, AI agents and AI-powered workflows
- Productivity & Personal Organization — /feeds/productivity/rss/
- Software Development — /feeds/dev/rss/ — just the dev content, without the knowledge-management material
- Best Of — /feeds/best/rss/ — a low-volume feed of my featured posts
On top of that, every tag has its own feed: append rss/ to any tag URL, for example /tag/obsidian/rss/.
Why I bothered
RSS is the calm way to follow a site: chronological, complete, and entirely under your control. But a single firehose feed isn't ideal. Someone who follows me for Obsidian tips shouldn't have to wade through old front-end development posts, and vice versa. Topic feeds let each reader self-select.
How it works
The topic feeds are Ghost channels: routes with a filter, defined in routes.yaml. Each channel is both a browsable page and an RSS feed. No hand-written feed template to maintain. I wrote up the full process in my notes: Creating custom filtered RSS feeds in Ghost.
